SEASON PASS REFUND PROTECTION BENEFIT

The maximum benefit amount of Pass Refund Protection shall not exceed the purchase amount of the pass (excluding the cost of Pass Refund Protection).

With respect to an Injury, Sickness or Pregnancy of the Pass Holder, a Physician must recommend in writing that due to the severity of the Pass Holder’s condition, it is Medically Necessary that the Pass Holder does not ski/ride for the remainder of the ski season for which the Season Pass was purchased. The Pass Holder must be under the direct care and attendance of a Physician. The Season Pass holder must contact Mt. Bachelor Resort immediately after the accident or onset of Sickness or Pregnancy. With respect to Military Deployment, the Pass Holder is called to active military service or military leave is revoked or reassigned while the Pass Holder’s coverage under Pass Protection is in force.

The Season Pass must be surrendered to the Mt. Bachelor Ski Resort immediately after the relocation and the Pass Holder must provide proof of change of address (driver’s license, passport, voter registration, etc.). Any qualifying cancellation benefit amount will be delivered by certified mail to the Pass Holder at the relocation address. The amount of the cancellation benefit will be equal to the pro-rated amount of the actual cost of the Season Pass paid. The pro-rated amount is calculated as follows:
